Resolutions

The New Year. That means resolutions. Let’s get them started, get them done, and then forget them.

I’m already looking forward to doubling my corn production, after analyzing the markets. Yes. I’m planting one more stalk of corn. And then decorating it for Christmas. Hurry up April.

I’ll never take friends or family for granted, and will do my best to steer the newest members to something musical, but not all that loud. Egg shakers seem to be the right fit.

I’ll continue to walk that fine line between refined political discourse and ramming my head into a wall.

Musically, I need to work on jazz chords for the guitar, and then warbling between the fourth and fifth draw on the harmonica. But not both at the same time.

I’ll travel more this year. Yes, I might even cross the state line. But just one. I don’t have a passport.

It will be fun to be in the thick of the newspaper industry with the big picture goals of providing vital information to our readers and the bigger picture of keeping democracy going through our work with the state association, Iowa Freedom of Information Council and Iowa Watch. While juggling those lofty goals, I’ll also be figuring out the best way to format Keystone bowling scores.
